Chris Davis, who leads the team in average, homers and RBIs, will play first base and bat fifth vs. the Los Angeles Angels today after leaving Friday's game early and sitting out Saturday because of a right knee injury.

Davis, the American League's player of the month for April, was taken out of Friday's game after hurting his right knee running out a groundball in the fifth inning. He had an MRI exam Saturday morning, and Angels doctors said it showed patellar tendinosis in his knee.

Orioles officials said Saturday they were confident Davis would avoid going on the disabled list.

Davis tested the knee with some pregame running Sunday, and decided he felt well enough to play.
